A Randomized, Open-Label, Phase 2 Study of the IDO Inhibitor Epacadostat Versus Tamoxifen for Subjects With Biochemical-Recurrent-Only Epithelial Ovarian Cancer, Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma, or Fallopian Tube Cancer Following Complete Remission With First-Line Chemotherapy

Description

Brief Summary
This is an open-label, randomized, phase 2 study of an IDO inhibitor, INCB024360 (epacadostat) versus tamoxifen in biochemical recurrent only ovarian cancer patients following complete remission with first-line chemotherapy.


Phase

Phase 2 - takes the treatment one step further, assessing the activity of a particular therapy in a disease, often building upon leads from the Phase I trial. While patients are generally required to be previously untreated, participation in a Phase II trial doesn't usually preclude the patient from getting the standard treatment after they've received the investigational agent. At best they are allowed to get a new drug they wouldn't be able to get otherwise that may turn out to be better for their disease.

Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria

  • - Subjects who have received first-line chemotherapy, which must have been a platinum-containing regimen. - Subjects who received maintenance paclitaxel or, bevacizumab, or alternative maintenance therapy (e.g. vaccines) are eligible for enrollment provided they have discontinued therapy at least 4 weeks for prior taxane and, at least 8 weeks for bevacizumab, or received medical monitor approval for time lapse from alternative maintenance therapy prior to randomization and recovered from toxicities to less than Grade 2. - Subject must be currently in remission by clinical and radiological criteria (Response Evaluation Criteria for Solid Tumors [RECIST 1.1]). a. If a PET scan or high-resolution CT scan is performed and demonstrates new disease
  • If CA 125 is ≥ 2 × ULN the confirmatory value only needs to be 1 week apart.
  • CA 125 elevation is defined as a value that is at least 2 × ULN on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart (UK ONLY REQUIREMENT). - CA 125 elevation must be at least 3 months from completion of first-line platinum-containing regimen. - Documentation of at least 1 normal CA 125 level at approximately 3 months during or following first line therapy is required. - Subjects must have available archived tumor tissue. - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. - Adequate renal, hepatic, and bone marrow function based on screening laboratory assessments.

  • Subjects with any evidence of new disease (> 1 cm) including new ascites as confirmed by imaging.
  • Any other prior antitumor systemic therapy except for first-line chemotherapy associated with previous CA 125 normalization or maintenance paclitaxel, bevacizumab, or alternative maintenance therapy as approved by the medical monitor.
  • Subjects with prior radiotherapy within 3 months of randomization and have not recovered from all radiotherapy-related toxicities, who have received radiation therapy to the chest within 3 months of randomization, or who have a history or radiation pneumonitis.
  • Subjects with protocol-specified active autoimmune processes except vitiligo or thyroiditis.
  • Subjects receiving investigational study drug for any indication, immunological-based treatment for any reason (except completed adjuvant therapy with medical monitor approval), or potent CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors.
  • Subjects receiving monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) within the 21 days prior to screening; subjects who have ever had Serotonin Syndrome (SS) after receiving 1 or more serotonergic drugs.
  • Subjects for whom tamoxifen therapy is contraindicated.
